^ ?93l The Storrs & Harrison Co/s Catalog 
[ THIS NEW CATALOG 
[ new items, particularly in the Seed Department (1-32), 
^ and in Hardy Perennials (33-60). In Seeds, we are 
L accepting the verdict of All-America Council as being 
worth while; and offer you many of the new items 
to which they have awarded >i;ertificates of superiority. 
Eventually, the older varieties will be discarded. 
Without dropping many of the standard Perennials, 
we have tried to bolster our lists with outstanding 
new introductions which are justified by our trials. 
We are conservative in policy, and require adequate 
proof before passing on enthusiasm over a “new” 
item, to our own customers whose faith and loyalty 
Vfe appreciate. 
i. The Roses, Shrubs, Trees and Fruits section, hold 
; to the standard tried-and-true types, with just a 
: few innovations which are given proper prominence. 
We believe sincerely that this spring season is go- 
( ing to mark a splendid recovery in planting of all 
classes of nursery stock. So much loss from three 
i years of abnormal weather conditions, means neces¬ 
sary replacements,—^and rather limited supply. 
Founded on, and 
run by, the 
“Golden Rule" 
In asking you now for our accustomed share in 
your patronage, we earnestly hope that your main 
orders may be placed early enough to insure delivery 
in our well-known superior grading,—complete.

a Fruit Trees, our reputation bears the 
endorsement of several generations who have planted

duction of Ornamental Trees, Shrubs, and Roses in¬ 
volves several hundred fertile acres. No order too 
big. No order too small.

A a and many acres of ground. This 
department includes House Plants, Bulbs and Tubers, 
and a splendid array of Hardy Perennial Plants.

jug preparation; packets liberal; 24-

TERMS 
WHEN TO ORDER. As soon as this catalog reaches you, 
send in your complete order for seeds, plants and trees, with 
definite shipping instructions which we will follow as closely 
as possible. By ordering early, we are enabled to assemble 
possibly all of your list while supply is unbroken, and “set it 
aside” awaiting desired, or proper shipping time. Evergreens, 
caliper sized trees, and any other items which must be fresh- 
dug, are, of course, subject to weather and general digging 
conditions. 
HOW TO ORDER. Please use order sheet found in rear 
part of this catalog, or otherwise if desired, using care to be 
definite, with accurate instructions. To avoid confusion, do 
not write letters on same sheets as orders. 
REMITTANCES should be made by post office or express 
money order, bank draft or registered letter. Omittances in 
unregistered currency are entirely at sender’s risk. 
SUBSTITUTION. We reserve the right in case we are out 
of a variety, to substitute another of equal merit when it can 
be done (always labeling with correct name)—^unless the party 
ordering says “No Substituting,” in whicn case we will fill 
order as completely as we can, and refund balance of re¬ 
mittance. 
GENERAL TERMS. Net cash with order. No discounts al¬ 
lowed. POSTPAID BY MAIL. We deliver postpaid to any post 
office in the United States, any article in this catalog offered 
by mail. BY EXPRESS OR FREIGHT charges are not prepaid, 
but are collectible at destination. In the various classes, we 
will furnish 6 or more of one variety and size at dozen rates; 
26 or more at 100 rates ; 260 or more at 1000 rate if quoted. 
SEASON OF SHIPPING. Orders for stock from the nursery 
will be shipped at the proper time for handling as soon as 
possible after order is received. 
LATE SHIPMENTS. Our land is cooled and vegetation 
kept dormant by proximity to Lake Erie, several weeks later 
than other sections of corresponding latitude. This enables us 
to dig and ship stock in perfect condition after trees in most 
other sections are in full leaf, and to supply the slowly 
warming points farther north. 
BY FREIGHT OR EXPRESS. Every article not specially 
priced “by mail postpaid,” is priced for delivery by Freight or 
Express, packed free, but customer to pay transportation 
charges. All heavy trees in large quantities should be sent by 
freight if time is not too urgent, as the carrying charge is 
much less; and our perfect packing permits a long journey 
without injury to the trees. 
BY EXPRESS (or Mail) ONLY. Strawberry plants are 
perishable and must be delivered in quickest time possible. 
We never ship them by freight. This also applies as well to 
Tender Plants and Perennials. If such stock is ordered shipped 
by freight, customer must assume entire risk of loss or dam¬ 
age.
